TurnLine AM Chipbreaker for Efficient Steel Machining
The Tungaloy AM chipbreaker features a “lift ridge” shape that minimizes the contact area between the chip and the rake surface, reducing the heat generated by chip abrasion and prevents crater wear from developing
The Tungaloy AM chipbreaker features a “lift ridge” shape that minimizes the contact area between the chip and the rake surface, reducing the heat generated by chip abrasion and prevents crater wear from developing. The inclination on the cutting edge decreases cutting force even when machining at high speeds and feeds. Optimized chipbreaker width and geometry deliver stable chip control.
The AM chipbreaker is an excellent choice for steel turning where productivity can be improved by allowing customers to increase their process speeds and feeds.
